Abstract
Terrestrial orchids can be short- or long-lived evergreen winter green or deciduous self compatible or obligate outcrossers: their population and reproductive behaviours have evolved to manage seasonal change pollinator availability and habitat stability or disruption. Using Cypripedium parviflorum var. pubescens Epipactis helleborine Goodyera pubescens and Platanthera psycodes as examples aspects of pollination biology flower longevity reproductive success and dormancy as well as some investigative methodologies that could apply to any orchid population are explored.
